Lies

The rolling of the tongue when the lips
depart each other.  The sounds of
the consonants and vowels,
The passion to do so
with e'vry heartbeat.
Knowing that the
truth is told
by the
eyes.

Monique this is an excellent depiction of the liar telling lies even before they are verbalized. Great job, in form, imagery and flow, I thank you for sharing the read. God's Love and Many Blessings, Always, Adell
